ACTUAL PASSPORT APPLICATION LETTER SENT BACK TO STATE DEPARTMENT... Dear Mrs. Ms. Or Sir: Im in the process of renewing my passport and still cannot believe this. How is it that Radio Shack has my address and telephone number and knows that I bought a cable TV from them in 1987 (23 years ago), and yet, the Federal Government is still asking me where I was born and on what date. For Petes sake, do you guys do this by hand? Ever heard of computers? My birth date you have in my social security file. Its on EVERY income tax form Ive filed for the past 45+ years. Its on my Medicare health insurance card and my drivers license, its on the last eight damned passports Ive had, its on every stupid customs declaration form Ive had to fill out before being allowed off the plane for the last 40+ years. And its on all those census forms that we have to do at election times. Would somebody please take note, once and for all, that my mothers name is Maryanne, my fathers name is Robert and Im reasonably confident that neither name is likely to change between now and when I die. Between you and me, Ive had enough of this bureaucratic BS! You send the application to my house, then you ask me for my **&#%* address. What is going on? You must have a gang of bureaucratic Neanderthal morons working there! Look at my damn picture. Do I look like Bin Laden? And No, I dont want to dig up Yasser Arafat, for shit sakes. I just want to go and park my a-- on a sandy beach. And would someone please tell me, why would you give a damn whether I plan on visiting a farm in the next 15 days? If I ever got the urge to do something weird to a chicken or a goat, believe you me, Id sure as hell not want to tell anyone! Well, I have to go now because I have to go to the other end of the city and get another F^@*@ copy of my birth certificate, to the tune of $100. Would it be so difficult to have all the services in the same area so I could get a new passport the same day? Nooooo, that would require planning and organization. And it would be too logical for the F@&^*^%@%government. Youd rather have us running all over the place like chickens with our heads cut off. Then, we have to find some a--hole to confirm that its really me in the damn picture - you know, the one where were not allowed to smile. Hey, you know why we cant smile? Were totally pissed off! Signed- An Irate Citizen. P.S. Remember what I wrote about getting someone to confirm that the picture is me? Well, my family has been in the United States of America since 1776. I have served in the military and have had security clearances up the ying yang. However, I have to get someone important to verify who I am - you know, someone like my doctor....WHO WAS BORN AND RAISED IN INDIA ! And you ^^^holes want to run our health care system?????
